Tears
I am so sorry that you're going through this. I have had similar days when the sadness and emptiness is so overwhelming, all I can do is cry. I have felt in these times that God is not with me. But, when I slowly start to pull myself out, I see that it was me that pushed him away. I will pray for you that you find peace, and lean in to God for strength. I am learning to do that as well.
No God is not punishing you. You are just hurt and feeling lost. I have that feeling a lot since I lost my Mom. I call it “unmoored “.
It’s good to cry. Try to think what starts it. Praying for you.

I've felt this way before, too. Then I look around at the world and all of the things that can happen to people that are truly terrifying and horrible. Is God punishing all these people in such awful ways? It's just my opinion, but I can't believe that. I don't know why some of us have depression and others don't, but having faith is sometimes what has gotten me through.
Depression ebbs and flows and many of us have long periods where we're free of it, sometimes for good. There is hope, my friend. You are not a bad person being punished. Please keep posting and know that you are not alone.
No !!! He is not!!! I think it's good to have a good cry, it gets it out of you! Then for a few minutes focus on something that makes you happy! Peace be with you!!! XXX
